Abstract: Methods are provided for producing fat-soluble vitamin particles. The particles exhibit extended shelf life and cooking stability and can be made without mineral acids or organic solvents. The particles are composite particles of a pH sensitive polymer and a fat-soluble vitamin such as vitamin A. The particles can be incorporated into foodstuffs such as bouillon, cereals, wheat flour, millet flour, cassava flour, tapioca flour, teff flour, corn meal, milk, milk powder, malt beverages, soy sauce, ready-to-use therapeutic foods, rice, or sugar. The foods can provide stable sources of vitamin A for populations in need thereof.
